I've got ghc working here on a centos 5.5 machine. But without root
privilege, I don't know how.
Perhaps you can use a virtual machine with centos 5.5 (you'd have root
access on this machine), install ghc on this machine, compile your programs
there, then transfer that on the first computer ?

I recently built a binary installer for GHC 7.6.3 to run on CentOS 5.9,
which should be compatible with RHEL 5. It uses glibc 2.5, at least. I
don't have a good place to host it long-term, but would be happy to make it

Actually getting a successful build and installation would be great.
Also, there are multiple systems I work with, both of which have ancient
software, but
I had similar work situation before. What I did was: install a CentOS
virtual machine on Windows at home (CentOS version should be compatible to
your RHEL5 version, and do not update it), then play with Haskell within
CentOS. Your executables will be runnable on RHEL5.

Christopher Howard:
I was wondering if there was perhaps
another language very similar to Haskell (but presumably simpler) with a
super portable compiler easily built from source, which I could try.
I'll admit -- I haven't tried the HUGS compiler for Haskell. The quick
description didn't make it
Have you considered installing on older version of GHC? Such as GHC
6.10.4 or GHC 6.8.3?
http://www.haskell.org/ghc/download_ghc_6_10_4
http://www.haskell.org/ghc/download_ghc_683
They won't have all the latest extensions.. but they still have more
features than any other alternative.
Also, once
If you are feeling brave, you can also bootstrap GHC. For operating
systems that are already supported, it should not be too hard.
Last time I tried on a fresh install of Debian, the process was to
install the dependencies, and then something like this:
sh configure
make
make install

Hugs98, or failing that, the original Hugs, will almost certainly
be easier to compile for your RHEL5 system, but do note that
it's not a compiler in the sense that it makes standalone binaries.
Given your constraints, it's probably the best choice.

Hi. I've got this work situation where I've got to do all my work on
/ancient/ RHEL5 systems, with funky software configurations, and no root
privileges. I wanted to install GHC in my local account, but the gnu
libc version is so old (2.5!) that I can't even get the binary packages
to install.
